he's dragging his left foot just like me! Probably losing some D there. It also looks like he isnt really in his true power zone...like he is releasing earlier than he needs to. His off arm is kind of loose as well on some of the throws. What kind of D is he getting? Doesnt look like much over 400 on the longest throws. Pros: looks controlled like he isnt red lining. The last 3 drives look to me by far the best from a technical stand point...but you cant see the disc's flight.

ps. looks like he is throwing super flippy plastic on the long throws. Im not dogging his technique, maybe he is bombing (its hard to tell with no indicators on the ground) or maybe he is really accurate.

I laugh every time I see that speed golf vid. If you've never played that hole, you really don't get an appreciation for just how far they have to run.

The first time I played the toboggan I got to be the spotter on that hole, so I could see where the pin was. You have to go down the fairway there almost to where the fence ends just to see the pin, and even then it's hugely far away. The hills on that course are NO joke. I feel the guy's pain as he hobbles up at the end of that video... I think almost all of us would be just as wiped out

Seriously though, it's great to have some new video of Mike. His technique has gotten even more smooth and fluid since I last played with him. I need to come up to the QC for a weekend and work with him I think.
